Join Alana to learn the basics of this fun, sweaty, and playful style of yoga. Rocket yoga is a set flow. We follow the same sequence every class, and as you learn the flow, it becomes a moving meditation.
Sprinkled throughout the sequence are ‘daffodils’ – challenging poses like arm balances and inversions that students can work towards. As you repeat the flow over this four-week series, you’ll see your practice grow and learn how it feels to align breath and movement mindfully.
-Week 1: all about sun salutations and the rocket yoga foundations
-Week 2: exploring the full rocket sequence
-Week 3: daffodils and ‘bus stops’ (steps towards the more advanced poses)
-Week 4: putting it all together
The name might sound scary, but rocket yoga is for EVERYBODY. Alana offers lots of variations to make the practice something that feels strong in your body – it’s not about what it looks like, but how it feels!

Join Licensed Soul Therapist Vanessa Faria, in support of women exploring how to connect to your true authentic expression. The benefits are astounding!
Sharing your core truth and living your purpose is deeply pleasurable and incredibly satisfying. Most women are blocked from accessing her core power, her true awareness of self.
Soul Therapy® is an evolutionary embodiment of exploring your humanness from the SOUL level.
During our time together you will be asked five questions that will lead you into greater awareness of who you are, why you get stuck, what your soul wants to communicate to you, how to manifest your dreams and how to love yourself. If you have ever wanted to tap into your unlimited potentiality and be happy in the flow of life with less stress, now is the time to do so.
Your soul is the guardian and gatekeeper to your true self. Your authentic voice is the one main requirement that resides within you and provides ample opportunities for you to listen, grow and expand.
Most people don’t know how to listen or understand how to embrace your soul’s wisdom and knowledge. Soul Therapy® Seminars are designed to show you how to remove the barriers that stop you from experiencing and loving a fully expressed, evolutionary life!
Vanessa will support and guide you along the way.
